Thanks for the advice guys, I think its sorted, The installation should have been totally automatic, and manfacturers website, said ALL W98's had drivers incorpirated - so support (and drivers) couldnt be found anywhere. Anyways, during trying to install the card again. I noticed that although...

Putting the CDrom and DVD (seperate drives)on secondary IDE - and, on bootup no devices at all are detected. But when I take the DVD out, its all fine. Even trying the DVD on both master and slave on the secondary IDE cable, changing jumpers - all configurations tried. Every time I put the DVD...

Running W98se on a pc100 system board with Intel Celeron 433 processor & 24mb ram. Wanted to upgrade the ram(said would only take pc100 speed, or 66) But it was suggested to me to try out 256(2x128)mb of pc133 ram. Its in, and everything is a heck of a lot better than with the 24mb ram. The only...

I know, I really need to kick myself in the head for this one, but... I was working on a PC, and put it aside for the moment....right next to a great big whopping speaker. (12") It was unfortunatly left there over night before I noticed. And when I booted it up this morning, all the colour...

Major problem here.... When I boot up the comp (p400 24MBram)(Not my comp!) and have the boot floppy in, it dosnt recognise it (says nothing) and then proceeds to carry on loading W98. And when it gets to loading the W98 logo screens, It tells me Explorer has performed an illegal operation, and...

I'm no pro, but I have a few suggestions for you. Are you using a floppy to boot from? good site to get one from is www.bootdisk.com. Or it might be a buggy version of W98? Sorry I couldnt be more help Merry Xmas! :)
